The MOTIVATE principle of TIME teaches us that “the more time we spend with our loved ones, the greater our influence on them.” Mark 3:14 shows us that Jesus Himself understood the value and impact of “spending time” by choosing 12 people to focus on and “to be with” so that He can send them out to preach the gospel.
Most children and adults spell the word LOVE as T-I-M-E. But how come we don’t spend time with our loved ones more intentionally?
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
- How do you spend your time every day? What activities do you engage with your family and disciples?
- What will you start and stop doing so you can be a better handler of the sacred trust of TIME?
- Even if we are busy, we can double up our time. How can you work or study effectively but at the same time lead people to Jesus? Share your ideas and inspire one another!
PRAY, CARE, SHARE
- Pray that as we intentionally spend our time with people that we will be able to care for them the way Jesus does.
- Share to people that we have a God who is not limited by time and who wants to spend eternity with us.
- Share that the best time to trust the Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life is now, not later.
